Going out with bottle fed baby

Practice makes perfect - we use the nuby rapid system when we're out and it's brilliant! We usually just grab a coffee at the same time and it means we get a recharge.

If I'm going longer distances - for example I went from Bournemouth to Oxford the other day - I am led by him; if he wants a bottle I will find a service station or layby and feed him in the back of the car, burp him, change him and he's usually content.

You've got this girl - try to not make it a bigger problem than it is :)

I make 2 bottles up before going out depending how long and where im going and a rapid cool the bags isolated so the bottled made go in the front and theb ive the rapid cool if its still too warm I dont follow the guidelines as such for how long the bottle should be made before drank as its always the 1st time she drinks out of it and its normally finished within a hour but she also only likes room temperature bottle so it gives them time to cool. I also feed before going out even if just 1oz I then know shes fed and will last atleast a hour

I do the same as you, I take the rapid cool and a flask with boiling water. I usually take three bottles/3 feeds and make sure I have nappies/change of outfit and dummies! I do find my wee one is eating more so I'll look into getting another tub for his feeds but I usually find this lasts for the amount of time we are out! Could be worthwhile you buying the Milton wipes/tablets and you can sterilise bottles when you're out if needed so you're not taking as much stuff? But as Nicole said, practice makes perfect and it does get it easier 😊 x

I pre measured out the formula and water into two separate containers and then when it was time for a bottle I would make it just the same as I would at home! … room temperate water is just fine for bottles .. it doesn’t need to be heated.

I do the same I pre-measure the formula and put them into formula pots and hot water flask. The cooling flask from (Tommee Tippee) really helps cool the formula to room temperature! It literally, takes a few mins to prepare his milk! It’s great and that way ‘I know the milk is fresh rather than making the pre bottles (baby might not drink within the 2 hours mark)

Yes I put the formula water in the Tommee tippee cooling flask. Give it a shake and the milk is almost ready in 2 mins!!
Works wonders! 😁
